Dahil Pride Month ngayong June, napagdiskitahan ng ilang bashers ang dalawa sa ating celebrity transmen gaya ng dating singer na si Charice Pempengco na ngayo’y kilala bilang Jake Zyrus at Aiza Seguerra na ngayo’y Ice Seguerra na.
Unang pinansin si Jake matapos nitong mag-post ng ilang kasabihan sa Instagram (IG) nitong nakaraang June 20, 2024 mula sa Russian novelist na si Fyodor Dostoevsky.
Nakasaad sa post, “A beast can never be as cruel as a human being, so artistically, so picturesquely cruel. - Fyodor Dostoevsky.”
Nilagyan ito ni Jake ng kanyang dalawang larawan at nakasaad din ang isang kasabihan mula naman sa American writer at human rights activist na si James Baldwin.
Ayon sa mensahe, “The most dangerous creation of any society is the man who has nothing to lose. - James Baldwin.”
Dahil sa kanyang ipinost, isang netizen ang nagkomento. Sey nito ay sayang ang boses ni “Charice”. Ikinumpara pa nito si Jake kay Ice Seguerra na isa ring transman.
Komento ng netizen, “Sayang boses mo, Charice. Bakit si Ice Seguerra, transman pero never binago ang boses. Sayang talaga.”
Inalmahan ni Jake ang komento ng netizen pagkabasa nito.
Tinawag kasi siya ng netizen sa dati niyang pangalang Charice na kanya nang kinalimutan pagkatapos niyang mag-transition, na ang ibig sabihin ay “deadnaming” o pagtawag sa isang transgender sa kanilang birthname gayung kinalimutan na nila ito bilang bahagi ng kanilang pagbabagong katauhan.
Reaksiyon ni Jake sa netizen, “First of all, with respect to my past, keep my deadname out of your silly mouth.”
Tutol din si Jake sa pagkukumpara sa kanila ni Ice at sinabi ni Jake na hindi nagte-take si Ice ng hormone therapy. It’s a huge part of being a transman.
“Maybe there are more important reasons why he hasn’t taken hormone therapy. I am not going to explain the rest because based on your comment you sound ignorant.”
Dahil tila gusto raw ng netizen na maging “center of attraction” ay pagbibigyan ito ni Jake sa pamamagitan ng pagpi-pin niya sa komento nito.
“Google is free, my darling. I’m going to pin your comment because it seems like you love being the center of attention. So let’s give it to you sweetheart. Have a nice day.”
Ayon naman sa isang fan ni Jake, ang komento ng basher ay nagpapakita ng bias nito laban sa mga transgender.
Saad ng fan, “Yikes! Your transphobia is showing sis. Before you comment, maybe you should do some research. The only thing sayang is you coming on here just to write some trash ass comment. Okay, bye have a nice day.”
Buwelta ni Jake, “Right. You support a trans, and bash another trans because of what? Birit?
‘Yun lang? Make it make sense, Sis. Being a transgender is more than just singing high or low notes.
“And the audacity of you to deadname me and properly call Ice his real name. What a joke,” pahayag ni Jake.
Sa kabila ng lahat, isa namang supporter ang nagpaabot ng kanyang simpatya kay Jake Zyrus. Pinuna rin nito ang basher dahil hinanap lamang daw nito ang account ni Jake upang husgahan ito.
Sey ng isang netizen, “What gives you the right to come on his Instagram to come and judge him? We come on here to show our love and support to Jake, but it’s people like you who are too ignorant to educate yourself. If you don’t have anything nice to say, then don’t say anything at all. Keep your opinions, insults, judgments, etc. to yourself.”
“We love you, Jake, don’t let people like this ruin your day,” pagtatanggol ng fan at supporter para kay Jake Zyrus.
